About this home
Set high atop Aspinwall Hill in close proximity to Washington Square and Brookline Village, this incredible Shingle-style carriage house offers a remarkable confluence of breathtaking historical character and effortless contemporary cool. Designed by prominent Boston architects Hartwell and Richardson in 1888 and spanning over 6300 sf of interior living space, this property preserves striking original architectural features, from original double doors used for horse drawn carriages to a turreted top level living area featuring soaring cathedral ceilings, restored beams, skylights, and sweeping vistas of the lushly landscaped 0.58 acre lot. Modern touches also abound, from the stone-capped kitchen island in the upper-level entertaining space to the two-story fireplace in the voluminous open-plan downstairs living area. An entertainer’s paradise, this property offers two equally stunning living, dining and kitchen spaces, plus a wonderful newly refinished auxiliary lounge on the lower level. In addition to five generous bedrooms and three and a half full baths, the house also offers a brilliant built-in office or library, a second office / workspace in a repurposed carriage stall, and a versatile workshop or art studio. The one-of-a-kind “jockey walk” art gallery off the main foyer offers an inspiring spot to showcase an art collection. The house offers exceptional indoor-outdoor connections including a luminous family room or sun room off the garden, two generous decks, multiple balconies, a stone patio, and an expansive backyard with mature plantings. A graceful circular driveway and two garage bays offer plenty of parking for a crowd. Numerous recent updates, including five-zone 2023 HVAC, five new skylights, many new light fixtures; and new recessed lights, sheet rock and new or newly refinished wood floors in all the bedrooms. Exceptionally well located on a private way yet easily accessible to premier shopping, dining, multiple Green Line stops, downtown Boston, the Longwood Medical area, and renowned public and private schools. This thrilling property is like nothing you’ve ever seen---a serene oasis nestled in one of Brookline's most desirable locations with the best of city living at your doorstep. An incredible opportunity.
